>>15963976KJV is best, but if you must as a start then NIV will do (but read the footnotes and keep in mind KJV will have a more originally based translation).
Interestingly I ordered a version of KJV including lots of apocrypha, as well as the book of Enoch.
If you're just starting, of course, you can start with Genisis, but otherwise start with Luke.
We shall pray for you brother.
